BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

The Washington Post, referencing Ukrainian and European officials along with individuals familiar with the operation's specifics, reported that Ukrainian colonel Roman Chervinsky was the alleged coordinator of the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines.

The report, describing Chervinsky as a senior Ukrainian military officer with strong connections to the country's intelligence, detailed his alleged involvement in the assault on the Nord Stream gas pipelines last year.

According to the report, Chervinsky served as the "coordinator" of the operation and was not acting independently.

As per the newspaper's sources familiar with the execution of the attack, the Ukrainian officer received directives from higher-ranking officials, who in turn reported to Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi.

The attack on the Nord Stream gas pipeline was coordinated by Ukrainian Col. Roman Chervinsky.

Russia says Nord Stream investigators misleading probe, US deflects

In earlier reports in August this year, German media, ZDF and Der Spiegel, said that there is no evidence of Russia's involvement in the pipeline explosions.

The news outlets added that there is growing evidence that agents linked to Ukraine may be behind the attacks on the Nord Stream pipelines. The news outlets noted that they were in Ukraine before and after the explosions in the Baltic Sea, citing technical data.

The month prior, a report by WashPo said the CIA knew through a European spy agency, three months before the sabotage attack, that members of a Ukrainian special operations team intended to blow up the NordStream pipeline.

The yacht involved, according to the investigators, was loaded with explosives and made a deviation from its original route into Polish waters from the Danish island of Christianso.

The Federal Prosecutor's Office of Germany confirmed last March that searches had been carried out on a ship that was carrying explosives to blow up the Nord Stream gas pipelines.
